SGMT machine gun 7.62x54mm R. Solenoid-operated version intended for use as a coaxial weapon on tanks

The Goryunov SG-43 was introduced during WWII, intended to replace the M1910 Russian Maxim as the standard medium machine gun. Like the 1910 Maxim, the Goryunov is usually seen on the 'Sokolov' wheeled-turntable mount. It was replaced by the PK machine gun in the 1960s.

Semi-automatic SG-43 machine guns exist in the United States, usually original receivers built up using imported parts kits from places like China or Poland.
